Hi,
I am sorry if this is obvious, but:
I am working on the scipy loadmat module, and would like to use numpy
to reformat the fortran order arrays that matlab saves. I was not
sure how to do this, and would like to ask for advice.
Let us say that I have some raw binary data as a string. The data
contains 4 integers, for a 2x2 array, stored in fortran order.
For example, here is 0,1,2,3 as int32
str = '\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x00\x00\x03\x00\x00\x00'
What is the best way of me putting this into a 2x2 array object so
that the array recognizes the data is in fortran order. Sort of:
a = somefunction(str, shape=(2,2), dtype=int32, order='F')
such that a.shape = (2,2) and a[1,0] == 1, rather than 2.
Sorry if that's obvious, but I couldn't see it immediately....
Thanks a lot,
Matthew
